Black panels LG - 3 ½” x 4 5/8” SML – 2 1/5” x 3 2/4”
I used these daises once to shelter a mouse from the rain and figured it would look cute with the big healthy bug!
The images are colored with markers or artist brush and re inkers. The grass is stamped multiple times until I liked the coverage. The sky is sponged using a cloud template. The sun is rock and rolled although it doesnÂ’t show much with the tiny lines of the image. I then cut down to size and glued it to the panel.
Distressing ink is done on the designer paper and image panel. Tool distressing is done on the black panels including the oval.
I dry embossed the swirls on the background the old fashioned way using a light table! The ribbon is knotted on one end strung through the hole and out again and is taped to back the panel. I cut like pieces of small cardstock to layer on the back of the ovals so it would lie even on the card. The red panel is mounted on white cardstockÂ…IÂ’m using up a ton of scraps that my demo gave me to use. The little hearts are punched and glued to the card.

I was taken with your whole card but was especially pleased to see you used the old fashioned dry embossing. Thought I was the last one left. You are such a creative person!
